For each positive integer n, Khovanov and Rozansky constructed an invariant of links in the form of a doubly-graded cohomology theory whose Euler characteristic is the sl(n) link polynomial. We use Lagrangian Floer cohomology on some…
We explain how existing results (such as categorical sl(n) actions, associated braid group actions and infinite twists) can be used to define a triply graded link invariant which categorifies the HOMFLY polynomial of links coloured by…
We consider colored operads and their actions on categories. As a special example we construct a cobordism category with a colored operad action arising from oriented planar arc diagrams. This is used to construct an invariant of oriented…
We want to construct a homological link invariant whose Euler characteristic is MOY polynomial as Khovanov and Rozansky constructed a categorification of HOMFLY polynomial. The present paper gives the first step to construct a…
Recently, a plethora of multivariable knot polynomials were introduced by Kashaev and one of the authors, by applying the Reshetikhin-Turaev functor to rigid $R$-matrices that come from braided Hopf algebras with automorphisms. We study the…
The aim of this paper is two-fold. First, we give a fully geometric description of the HOMFLYPT homology of Khovanov-Rozansky. Our method is to construct this invariant in terms of the cohomology of various sheaves on certain algebraic…
We prove that the bigraded colored Khovanov-Rozansky type A link and tangle invariants are functorial with respect to link and tangle cobordisms.
We provide the first complete computations of colored sl(N) homology for a nontrivial knot. In doing so, we show that the colored sl(N) homology of the trefoil labeled by an exterior power of the defining representation is isomorphic to the…
In "Homfly polynomial via an invariant of colored plane graphs", Murakami, Ohtsuki, and Yamada provide a state-sum description of the level $n$ Jones polynomial of an oriented link in terms of a suitable braided monoidal category whose…
We propose a framework for unifying the sl(N) Khovanov-Rozansky homology (for all N) with the knot Floer homology. We argue that this unification should be accomplished by a triply graded homology theory which categorifies the HOMFLY…
We define a homology $\mathcal{H}_N$ for closed braids by applying Khovanov and Rozansky's matrix factorization construction with potential $ax^{N+1}$. Up to a grading shift, $\mathcal{H}_0$ is the HOMFLYPT homology defined in…
We compute the triply graded Khovanov-Rozansky homology of a family of links, including positive torus links and $\operatorname{Sym}^l$-colored torus knots.
We continue to develop the tensor-algebra approach to knot polynomials with the goal to present the story in elementary and comprehensible form. The previously reviewed description of Khovanov cohomologies for the gauge group of rank N-1=1…
In the cabling procedure for HOMFLY polynomials colored HOMFLY polynomials of a knot are obtained from ordinary HOMFLY of the cabled knot with extra twists added. Thus colored polynomials can be seen as relation between HOMFLYs of cabled…
This is the author's diploma thesis. We describe a simplification in the construction of Khovanov-Rozansky's categorification of quantum sl(n) link homology using the theory of maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules over hypersurface singularities…
In two previous papers, the author showed how to decompose the Khovanov homology of a link $\mathcal{L}$ into the algebraic pairing of a type D structure and a type A structure (as defined in bordered Floer homology), whenever a diagram for…
We introduce a multi-parameter deformation of the triply-graded Khovanov--Rozansky homology of links colored by one-column Young diagrams, generalizing the "$y$-ified" link homology of Gorsky--Hogancamp and work of Cautis--Lauda--Sussan.…
New invariants of links are constructed using the skein invariant polynomial of colored links defined by the author in [1]. These invariants are stronger than the homflypt polynomial.
We construct an operator on sl(N) link homology with coefficients in a ring whose characteristic divides N. When P is prime, we use this operator to exhibit structural features of sl(P) link homology that are special to characteristic P…
For each positive integer n the HOMFLY polynomial of links specializes to a one-variable polynomial that can be recovered from the representation theory of quantum sl(n). For each such n we build a doubly-graded homology theory of links…
